The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the difference between the Red List and the Red Data Book, let's analyze the options step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the Red Data Book - The Red Data Book is a public document that records threatened, rare, or endangered species. - It includes information about animals, plants, and fungi, as well as local subspecies. - The Red Data Book contains three types of colored pages: - **Red pages**: Indicate species that are in danger. - **Pink pages**: Contain information about critically endangered species. - **Green pages**: Include information about species that were formerly endangered but are no longer in that category. ### Step 2: Understand the Red List - The Red List provides a list of endangered species but does not provide detailed information about them. - It is primarily a catalog that identifies species at risk of extinction. ### Step 3: Analyze the Options - **Option (a)**: Claims that the Red Data Book has colored pages (red, pink, green) while the Red List has animals typed with brown, blue, and orange. - This is partially true regarding the Red Data Book, but the second part about the Red List is incorrect. Therefore, this option is not entirely correct. - **Option (b)**: States that the Red List contains names of endangered species while the Red Data Book contains information about endangered species. - This is correct. The Red List does list endangered species, and the Red Data Book provides detailed information about them. - **Option (c)**: Suggests that both (a) and (b) are correct. - Since (a) is not entirely correct, this option cannot be correct. - **Option (d)**: States that none of the above options are correct. - Since option (b) is correct, this option is also incorrect. ### Conclusion The correct answer is **(b)**: The Red List contains names of endangered species, and the Red Data Book contains information about endangered species. ---
